Behind the scenes...

(ALWAYS UNDER CONSTRUCTION)

"How did you do that....?"

(LEFT) My workshop, after an early-November snow.

Over the years, many people have asked me how I did this or that in a piece. While the articles I will link to here are not the same thing as being in my workshop with me while I'm working, I hope they give you some insight into the processes I use.

Woodworking is an inherently dangerous activity. The non-woodworking techniques described here aren't all that safe, either. Sharp tools, powerful motors, big lumps of wood, chemicals, fumes, etc. can cause you serious bodily injury or even death. These pages are NOT meant as a substitute for instruction by a qualified teacher, just as an illustration of how I do certain things. I take no responsibility for any mishaps you may experience during a fit of inspiration. You've been warned.
